In cultivation, these grasses can reach a height of 5.5 to 6.3 inches (about 14 to 18 cm) with clusters of flowers, which bring them to a height of about 8 to 10 inches (20 to 25 cm).

Blue FESCUE GRASS is a popular accessory to rock gardens because it is tolerant to dry. It is also often planted along the front row of flower beds, as its height does not pose the risk of shading or covering the flower views behind it.

This ornamental grass prefers regular watering, well -drained soils and full conditions of the sun. Most often they spread by division and each cluster can be divided into many small clusters for transplantation. Fuscue blue grass can also be grown from seeds.
